Whether you’re looking for a comfortable hotel, possibly family-friendly, or a welcoming setting for your meetings and events in Venice, our boutique Hotel BEST WESTERN PREMIER Sant’elena is the perfect location for all your stays in the enchanting lagoon city.

Here modern design is combined with antique elements to create a refreshing and relaxing atmosphere. Minimal and elegant décor helps to create a contemporary flair enhanced by the unexpected delight of the inner courtyard.

The most authentic Venice in the greenest part of the city center”….close to St Mark’s Square but far away from the crowd”….that’s how our customers describe the hotel location.

The colors of the garments hanging out to dry, the artists carrying their easels under their arms, long afternoons sitting in the shades of the magnificent trees of Parco delle Rimembranze (Remembrance Park) or the gardens of the Biennale, a true terrace dominating the lagoon…..everything is reminiscent of an authentic Venetian dimension.

Getting to St. Mark’s Square from this peaceful oasis is easy: take the half hour walk in your spare time along the Riva degli Schiavoni , capture a slice of carefree, cheerful everyday life while enjoying the breathtaking views of the lagoon; alternatively, board the waterbus (vaporetto) for a 5 minutes ride to the city center; the waterbus stop in Sant’Elena is located 150 meters from the Hotel.

We highly recommend a visit to the island of Sant’Elena, the neighborhood of Sestiere Castello , Via Garibaldi, and during the summer season, the Lido and its famous beach.

So go ahead and choose your favorite room; they’re all very bright and much larger than most Venetian Hotels. The view? Couldn’t be more beautiful: all our rooms overlook either the calli ( alleyways) or the inner courtyard, formerly the cloister of the antique convent.

Enjoy the complimentary WiFi on your smartphone or tablet, or take advantage of our computer stations with free internet access. A slice of heaven always connected with the world.

If you’re considering a hotel in Venice, whether for a long or short vacation, with or without your family and kids, or for a business meeting, the BEST WESTERN PREMIER Hotel Sant’Elena is the ideal location for an unforgettable stay in the heart of the lagoon city.

Venice is connected to the mainland by a railway and highway bridge named Ponte della Liberta’ (Freedom Bridge), and is built on more than a 100 islands sitting in the middle of the lagoon, a reflecting pool offering breathtaking views at sunsets but also a maze of shoals and channels that over the years acted as a natural barrier against foreign invasions, allowing the city to become a chest of invaluable artistic treasures.
